Grandad bought a new glue tube for his grand daughter. The very next day, grandad was surprised to see that the glue tube was almost empty. The child had used it to stick together most of the pages of a diary.

Grandad: "I bought the glue so that at times of emergency or urgent need, you can use it without having to search for it"child: "But, it was an emergency when I used it!"

Daughter: I will not be a doctor when i grow upMe: why?Daughter: There is simply too many different activities to take care of. I would rather become a teacher instead.Me: why?Daughter: because i can give punishment to the students
